Rybrook Automotive in £11.8m profit

  03 August 2022

Rybrook Automotive Ltd, which calls itself one of the largest privately-owned retailer groups in the UK, has posted an £11.8m profit before tax for the year ended December 2021, up from £1.4m in 2020. Turnover grew from from £660m to £802m.

In October last year, Rybrook returned to full ownership by the Whale family after buying out the investors that helped return it to private ownership in 2003. Rybrook Group Ltd, formerly Shelfco 2021 Ltd, became the company’s new ultimate parent company.

Rybrook Holdings Ltd was renamed Rybrook Automotive Ltd in April 2022.
